Time for another build update! I haven't been able to get out the last few weeks so it's a good time for an update. All of the parts for the front end rebuild have been bought and are taking up my entire kitchen table. @O.Dfj was gracious enough to offer a hand so the truck should be back in...
Let's do a Reno meet and greet by doing an overnight trip! I posted a pole for dates, hopefully it's far out enough that people can request the time off as needed. There is no set plan yet but I am thinking we could go either to Nightengale mine, Black Rock Playa, or find a spot in Moon Rocks...

We do monthly runs, there's a thread under trip planning for it. But we won't have another rally till probably next year. It takes a lot to collect waypoints, buy prizes and set everything up so we probably won't do another rally for a while
